Role Models - Ride Bmx (1998)

[@RollcagerX]

Ah yes back when seats were high, sprockets were big, handlebars were small, and punk rock and hip hop went hand in hand.

[@benbenplus]

Don't forget the chrome rims with big side walls. Peg Bosses and Baggy Jeans.

[@Chiparoo-014]

don't forget and when you were a pro BMX rider you actually had to do some tricks not just style in looking cool and doing 1 360 maybe a turn down and that's it these Pros nowadays to me they're not even pro they're like nice amateurs

[@MsFatpigs]

and dare I say "when bmx was exciting"

[@Doty6String]

the standard for what a dirt jump should look like has really changed hasnt it

[@jameshawes2256]

I haven't seen this video in over 20 years. I watched it that much my vhs player chewed it up. I met Jamie Best Bestwick twice at Derby Storm back in the day. A true legend. And my favourite park of all time.

[@ILLUMINATE38436]

Crazy how much the riding style has changed

[@NJHC60926]

Mid school was honestly the best. Riding aside, just the music selection and videography alone are top notch 👍

[@ellied]

So many memories of riding and watching this and thunder!

[@goodcleanfunbmx]

Thank you for uploading this! I have the VHS and watched this religiously before and after every session growing up!

[@chrisdunderdale]

Me too!!!

[@DreamGaming101]

I use to watch as a kid and loved it so much and here I am 22 and the nostalgia is maxed out😂

[@jokodigdoyo8584]

Baggy pants era 👍👍👍👍

[@smasher.338]

My local bike shop actually rented bmx videos. This was one of the first bmx videos i saw. Great video, and great riding, even by todays standards.

[@eddienolan7129]

The vhs copy of this i bought back in 98, the movie just ended at credits when the axe was thrown at the tree. Me and my brother hotly debated whether this was a bad copy with ending missing or if it was supposed to end then, mid axe throw, mid guitar strum (it cut to black then). 25 years later as i watch this tonight and find out, i was fucking right. Suck on it Rob
